To clarify – while there's a lot of recommended/good practices for creating a server, a majority of those recommendations are optional.

If you're just trying to host a server and don't care about configuring it, you can simply download the Unturned Dedicated Server app from your Steam Library (it's already in there if you have Unturned), and then launch it from your Steam Library as well. You can share the Server Code with your friends to let them join.

Nicely done! You managed to pack in an impressive amount of great details without mods.

FWIW I agree with your earlier comments that yes, vanilla's decorative items are rather barebones. One of the main reasons for less items added over time is the 16-bit legacy ID limit. Ideally, if we do a rewrite of the inventory system it would include fully supporting GUIDs there, and then the door would be open to add items without worrying about using up the remaining IDs.

Nice progress on your reloads! :)

They're escaping Buak?! Toothy assured me it was far enough from the mainland and the water deep enough that they would be confined to the island. D:

Thanks DAGADEK_KFT, seconding this! To elaborate: You can place floors to start on one end, then switch to roofs once it's too deep for floors, and back to floors on the other end.

In older versions you *could* place floors the whole way across, but this also meant it wasn't uncommon to see floors used as giant walls around towns!

Are you still having issues with this? If this isn't your map (e.g., you're editing a vanilla map), then it might be getting replaced whenever the game updates.

Alternatively, maybe you want to delete certain volumes from the map rather than nodes.

Steam performs maintenance every Tuesday (i.e., today).

You probably tried playing while Steam servers were down in your region.

Damn, hope it goes well when you eventually start development again. I'm really looking forward to see more dev notes.

By the way, may I ask why you had to pause development?

It was for mental health reasons, but thankfully I feel I've made a lot of progress since then. Here's the link to my post about it at the time: Unturned II Development Paused

Also Sorry I don't know which flair is suitable for this post

Congratulations!

Yoooo Nelson, I haven't kept up with the Unturned 2 updates but I hope it's going well. Unturned was a big part of my childhood and would love to see it evolve into something more beautiful.

Thank you! I'm honored to hear Unturned played a big part in your childhood. ^_^

Unfortunately, I had to put development of Unturned II/4.0 on pause in early 2022, but I'm hoping to share some news on that front later this year - I have big aspirations for the future of the series as well, and aim to make it worth everyone's patience! Edit: I should probably clarify before I get anyone's hopes up that it's nothing very exciting and it's best to keep low expectations.

Hello! I absolutely mean no offense regarding the question, certainly not to the legendary indie developer of Unturned. I know the game was booming back in the 2010's and was wondering if was still now. Thanks to all these lovely comments, I know it is. Definitely going to get it.

Thank you haha! And no worries, I didn't take offense whatsoever - it's a perfectly reasonable question!

Love you Nelson, can we get a controller support? I'm really want to play with my controller

Thank you! I'd love to implement controller support on PC. Unfortunately, it'd be quite a big project to retrofit (for example, because the menus don't have controller flow, and we have to maintain both IMGUI and uGUI compatibility), so it depends whether it gets a lot of community traction as something to prioritize. That said, I intend to prioritize it from the beginning in any future games I make, as well as Steam Deck compatibility in particular.

Holy shit i didnt even realize you’re the creator of unturned! BIIIIIG FAN! I love this game so much that i even used it to make animations for my school projects lol (which was like 8years ago) I haven’t been playing for a loooong time and just got back on yesterday. Very impressed how you’re still updating and fixing bugs to this day. Props to you. Made so many good memories with my friends back in the days with this amazing game. Thanks for everything man.

Wow, welcome back to the game after such a long break and thank you for your kind words and longtime support! It's really cool to hear that you were able to use it for your school projects back in the day. :D

I'm definitely biased regarding the original question, but I can say that I really appreciate all of the positive comments in this thread! :)

Would love to see in-depth videos like this, great idea! I'd tend to agree that some of the newer maps don't have as much coverage as the older ones and would really benefit from videos like this.

Would you mind sharing a link to the server's log file again?

None of these errors would cause the mod to stop downloading / all of those errors are safe to ignore. Note that our support site (and the modding/server documentation, depending on the type of error) can be used to look up what various error messages or warnings mean!
